HIRO, Cássio Hideo Diniz. The school, the factory and the cinema: a reflection on soviet education and industry based on the film Tanya. Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2022, vol.22, e227.  Epub Sep 05, 2022. ISSN 2238-0094.  https://doi.org/10.4025/rbhe.v22.2022.e227.

This article analyzes the 1940 Soviet film Tanya, based on the study of the role of education and cinema in the construction of the ‘ideal model’ of a worker in the USSR during that period. This film stands out as one of the few works that immerses itself in the industrial universe, standing out in the analysis we carried out. In the meantime, we seek to understand the intentions of this work in instructing workers in its new ethos and in the appropriation of existing technological knowledge, inserted in the main aspects of Soviet education in the 1920s-30s. And, when analyzing the paths of the protagonist in her journey to transform herself into the ideal worker, we seek to analyze whether this cinematographic production specifies what should be the aspirations of workers in the new society idealized by the Soviet regime.

Keywords : socialist education; Soviet cinema; Stakhanovism.
